What the hell is wrong with you people?? It seems a great deal of effort is being made to paint Sanders and his supporters in the worse light possible. The slander and undertones being made against a person with his record is something I would never imagine from fellow Democrats. Against me as a person as well. Without knowing anything about me, I have had people imply I am a racist, a misogynist, a dreamer or someone who doesn't understand how the real world works. I am the polar opposite of a racist or misogynist and I am reminded daily how the"real world" works. What is wrong with being a dreamer? What is wrong with doing what hasn't been done? Why as Democrats, is "good enough", good enough?
Are there people, on any given issue, Democrat or republican, that take it to far? Hell yes. That can become a bigger problem than the problem itself? Hell yes.
I am no longer standing idle and allow someone else to dictate to me what kind of person I am or am not. What is the best solution or the "compromised" solution. Don't tell me "I just don't get it". The problem is, I do get it.
That it's what makes a person a Bernie Sanders supporter. We do get it. And we are no longer willing to accept the "compromise".
